Editorial review:

Some find this boutique hotel over the top since it is decked out in a retro 1960s theme. To illustrate this point, leopard-print robes have replaced the traditional white fluffy robe available in most hotels. However, the Pop Art rooms and the bar do attract loyalists who find this offering a fun choice.

Hotel Helix

Great quiet and upscale area, very good hotel. Friendly and helpful staff, well performed by some of the employees, the king sized bed was comfortable.

Wooden furniture type accomodations and elevators are small and at times slow.

Back for a night of work/tv and a quiet sleep w/ just a bit of city noise, the hotel is clearly in an older building has been renovated, the staff is friendly, helpful, and accessible. The bed is comfortable and also a local hangout is good.

Restuarant and room service hours are very limited.
